She suddenly remembered that on the morning she went to the Thousand Trees Palace, Yuwen Sheng had specially come to her room to wait for her to wake up.
He seemed to have been lying on the daybed, so she immediately lay down on the daybed and groped around for a while, but to no avail. Then her gaze shifted to the table in front of her...
After he stood up, he seemed to linger in that spot for a moment...
Finally, she felt every nook and cranny inside the table and found an engraved character—Zheng.
Zheng?
um...
She knew that the reason a code was a code was so that others couldn't understand it, but it didn't mean that even her own people couldn't understand it.
Do they think that just because she used to work in espionage, she must be a professional now?
No, she's not even an amateur.

Then... they found her hiding under the table.
She looked up at him with a pained expression, her eyes seemingly filled with tears.
"Are you... that heartbroken?" Gongshu Jiruo asked in a hoarse voice.
Heartbroken? Who?
"You pretended to be strong and didn't care about Yuwen Sheng's departure, but at night you hid under the table and cried silently alone?"
Zheng Quchi's eyes widened in disbelief.
She was hiding under the table, crying all by herself?
No, you're getting more and more outrageous.
